America Cantat 8 continues to represent the very finest musical and cultural exchange in one of the most beautiful settings in the world. It is marked by the open exchange of ideas and new friendships that defy national borders and geographical distance. In truth, these friendships are enhanced because of the power inherent in the universality of choral music. There is power but there is also joy and happiness when people come together in the creation of beauty and fellowship. This is at the very heart of the American Choral Directors Association and this is why America Cantat exists.
